Wieder mal Spanien

Spanien plant ein Gesetz, das Männer zu Hausarbeit, Kindererziehung und Altenpflege im häuslichen Bereich verpflichtet. Kommen sie ihm nicht nach, verlieren sie im Scheidungsfall ihre Kinder.

...
The law, due to be passed this month, is likely to provoke a revolution in family affairs in a country where 40% of men reportedly do no housework at all. It will oblige men to "share domestic responsibilities and the care and attention" of children and elderly family members, according to the draft approved by the Spanish parliament's justice commission....

... Failure to meet the obligations will be taken into consideration by judges when determining the terms of divorces. Men who refuse to do their part may be given less frequent contact with their children....

The initiative has received the backing of all Spain's political parties, including those of a conservative or traditionally Catholic bent.

"This will be a good way of reminding people what their duties are. It is something feminists have been wanting for a long time."

Es wird höchste Zeit, den Staat daran zu erinnern, was seine Pflicht ist, nämlich sich aus dem Privatleben seiner Bürger herauszuhalten.
